To Trip the Dark Horrific
 

A goth-noir tale of horror, wit, and narcissistic folly.

Seconds later I recall noticing two things slightly out of the ordinary.  The first was that the small desktop fan I normally kept running in the background for ambient noise was no longer whooshing away reassuringly.  Not too alarming on its own as the house I was renting had a tendency of losing power on a fairly regular basis.  However, combined with the fact that my entire body was completely paralyzed, the whole situation started to take on a slightly more sinister air...

"Enjoyable reading... yet... validates the opinion of the shrink in me that you've got some issues that you need to resolve."

"Edge-of-your-seat excitement… Brilliant. Abso-fucking-brilliant."
